An Apron

This morning we had our last bi-weekly team meeting. My International Teams team here seems to be quickly changing. First the Sliedrechts left in August. On Monday the Shaardas are heading to Kampala / America for a short home-service also. That means only Sarah, Josiah, and I are left in Soroti. Woah, a small team... but we are still excited about all that the Lord is using us to do here.
We started off the meeting with a time of encouragement and I was truly blessed and affirmed by my team-mates. They spoke about I am a 'person changing people'... how I simply meet, encourage, humour, befriend, and teach people. Not normally a person for tears, I must admit that I choked up this morning.
And to top it off, my two precious students presented me with an apron that they had had made and then they designed themselves. Such a sweet momento of my year of teaching Lydia (and Grace).
